Use of Diffusion Weighted Magnetic Resonance Imaging to Stage Gastric Adenocarcinoma Patients Preoperatively
1. proven endoscopic diagnosis of gastric adenocarcinoma
2. for staging purposes, computed tomography for all patients
3. evaluation of benign and malignant lymph nodes according to computed tomography
findings and mapping of the lymph nodes
4. to state precisely resectable patients according to computed tomography and anesthetic
evaluation
5. evaluation of benign and malignant lymph nodes according to diffusion weighted magnetic
resonance imaging findings and mapping of the lymph nodes
6. standard gastrectomy and D2 lymph node dissection
7. mapping of the lymph nodes after taking the specimen out
8. histopathological diagnosis of the lymph nodes and mapping
9. comparison of the results taken from computed tomography, diffusion weighted magnetic
resonance imaging and histopathological analysis
Interventional
